Yeh it is another flick on the topic filmed in semi-documentary fashion.

I decided to watch this film. It is a 4 hour long documentary/art-house/torture-porn mish-mosh about the horrors of Unit 731. I'm at the halfway point, will try to finish it tomorrow. No animal killings so far.

Ive never seen men behind the sun. But i gotta say cannibal holocaust was one of the freakyest movies ive seen. Two things i really liked about it is how even though the cannibals did alot of bad shit the crew recording them were way worse, killing and shit just for movie shots. I also liked that the movie seemed so real at the time the director actually had to bring the actor on a talk show or something to prove it wasnt really a snuff film lol. Personally there was alot to question about the movie, the animal violence for sure, the freaky native abortion scene, the raping of a few people by the natives and the crew, the list goes on lol. Although most of these subjects in the movie make people squirm i guess its mostly just to make it as fucked up and memorable as possible, many movies claim you wont forget it but i gotta say the one ill remember even into senile times has to be cannibal holocaust. If your looking for a scare and can handle all the crazy shit in it without puking then id highly suggest it to any dyhard horror fan, but not for those who are just getting into it or havent seen the worst gore and controversial topics can get in horror. And if i had to rate it it'd be at least 9/10, not the best but you WONT forget it.:D

Finished the movie. It was exceptionally brutal and heartbreaking. I don't think I could sit through it again, but it was certainly succesful in telling the whole story of what happened in Unit 731 without killing any cats or rats in the process.

Ok. So I realize that you hate that term... What would be a better term to describe that particular torture/exploitative genre?

Same term we called 'Ilsa Shewolf of the SS', 'Bloodsucking Freaks' and 'Last House' - exploitation films..

I just feel that the term 'Torture porn' is a media construct used to pigeon hole and dismiss certain Horror films...

Philosophy of a knife - Hmmm Wasn`t impressed, infact i found the reenactment quite boring and overly stylised. But that may be because i dont like documentaries made in a film noir kind of way - Though the parts where we are served archive footage and told the story by the narrator and the russian guy who witnessed the atrocities, is quite `interesting`.
